Welcome Harry :-><:

You've planned a great adventure! :II:

If you are not fixed on Verona, you could also stop at Garda lake, which is not far away. There are plenty of hotels there, the holiday season will be over, so you shoud find interesting rates (on booking.com).

For your return trip, I know an hotel in Calais area, in St Omer (about 50km from Calais): http://en.hotel-saintlouis.com/
The hotel is quiet and has a closed private parking. You can also book it on booking.com

Local members may give you a better contribution than mine ;)

Hopefully you will share your road trip (pictures) here.

Good luck !

I'd get a bit of the Route des grandes Alpes and the Stelvio in there too, if I were you.
Fortunately, I live in the Tarn Valley, and I've got the Pyrenees close, so no need to do thousands of miles to have fun. I'm planning to go to the Transfagarasan with a few mates, but not yet, I'll keep a eye on your trip to see if its worth using some of your routes.

Sophie

I already have the Tiellsoch and St Bernard Pass planned..I just wish I had more days..

====================
Also just found out there is a race day at Monza on the day I pass, it would be a shame not to pop in....

Also I pass the old Riems Gueuz race circuit, so slowly its not just driving but more of a tour de Europe.....

===========

How do I put up an offer onto myspeedster

I have a villa in Greece, special rates to any .org or .myspeedster forum member..please look at Novasol.com house number GPN159
